Mit nicko cruises Hochseekreuzfahrt nach Dänemark Kopenhagen

Once around the North Sea

13 days | Kiel • Copenhagen • Kristiansand • Edinburgh • Dundee • Newcastle upon Tyne • Hull • Tilbury • Southampton • Kiel

As an arm of the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea is a perfect mixture of tranquil mudfl ats and character-rich ocean. Its coasts are characterised by soft sandy beaches, fresh sea air and magnifi cent views – regardless of which of the countries bordering it you happen to be in. The VASCO DA GAMA takes you to Denmark, Norway, Scotland and England on this cruise, allowing you to experience the North Sea from both its raw and its gentle sides. As well as the breathtaking landscapes, the route is peppered with cities not to be missed: Copenhagen in Denmark and Kristiansand in Norway, as well as Edinburgh in Scotland, Hull in England, and the metropolis London. In Edinburgh you will experience the impressive Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, and in Southampton you can soak up history on the trail of the Titanic. The North Sea provides the framework for this tapestry of impressions.

When we think of a “kingdom”, the fi rst one that comes to mind is generally Great Britain. We tend to forget that Denmark and Norway also have kings and queens. In Copenhagen you will be given clear reminders of this fact at the castles of Fredensborg, Frederiksborg and Amalienburg.
Kristiansand and a scenic trip through the beautiful Norwegian landscape may well whet your appetite for a Norwegian cruise on the VASCO DA GAMA.
In the Scottish city of Dundee, you can marvel at the ship used by Captain Scott on his Antarctic expedition.
Will you join us on a trip to the Yorkshire Dales National Park, to Howard Castle or to Rievaulx Abbey? The choice is yours!
